Vitality score
Vitality score 39.4/100 — Few services (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 80 % of the 17,476 communes of a similar size.
Compare this with communes of a similar size. The score measures how well a place is served relative to its own size band, and larger communes score higher as a rule — so it reads meaningfully against another village, and misleadingly against a town.

Climate
Where this sits nationally
An average of 27 days a year at or above 30 °C and 75 days at or below 0 °C, over 27 complete years in 1995–2024. [12]
Measured at the ISSOIRE weather station, 5.9 km away at 372 m; the village itself is at 482 m. [12]
The village sits 110 m above the station, so each day's reading was shifted by 6.06 °C per km of altitude before the days were counted. Expect the result to be within about 0.68 °C. [12]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 0 days a summer. [12]
Humidity measured at ISSOIRE, 5.9 km away at 372 m, over 28 summers. [12]
That station sits 110 m below the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 3.69 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. [12]
An average of 619 mm of rain a year, spread over 92 days — about 6.7 mm on a day it rains. [12]
Rainfall measured at ISSOIRE, 5.9 km away at 372 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [12]
What property sold for
41 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 174,000 € — 1,510 € per m² of built surface. [13]
The median across Puy-de-Dôme is 1,487 € per m², so this commune sits about level with it. [13]
These are recorded sale prices, not valuations or asking prices, and a median over five years spans five different markets. Built surface excludes land, which carries much of a rural property's value.

…and in much the same climate
The same match on size and services, narrowed to communes whose summers, winters and summer humidity are all close to Saint-Yvoine's. All three are required, so this section is absent for the 11.8 % of communes with no humidity station near enough to measure: two temperature axes alone cannot tell a muggy coast from a dry one.
